This is for the MOPS mommas (yes, it’s almost time–get ready!), but really for all of my clients. I offer two different black & white options: one is a straight up black & white that I call “true black & white” and the other is what I call a “warm black & white”. The warm black & white simply adds a bit of brown to a black & white conversion, and just warms it up. It’s an effect I personally really like, but it may be hard to visualize. So here’s a couple shots for you to see the difference–starting in color, then the “true black & white”, then the “warm black & white”. Which one you pick is completely up to you.
Special thanks to Nathan Holritz of Photographer’s Edit for developing the presets which are the basis for these conversions (if you use Lightroom, click the link and get them!).
